Pure developer working on road racing game

Blackrock Studio, the Disney subsidiary behind the excellent off-road racer Pure, are taking it to the streets for their next game.

The company has signaled the game’s existence by way of a teaser video on YouTube. Lasting less than 30 seconds, the video shows bits of over-the-top, on-road racing action amidst static. While designed to look like something that shouldn’t be seen, even bearing the title “Secret New Video Game Leaked Video,” the video is copyrighted by Disney at the end, so by all appearances it’s legitimate.

Interestingly, the YouTube page for the video tags it with “burnout” and “paradise,” referring to Criterion’s similarly arcade-y on-road racer. Perhaps in imitation of the Burnout series, crashes and explosions play a big part in Blackrock’s teaser.
